From outside the firewall, you can telnet <server IP address> 5080
If the port is listening and the port forwarding is done correctly, you will see a response (most times it will just be a black screen) this will indicate the port is listening and that you can connect to it.

Also, a Show run would be helpful. You can change the IPs for security purposes if you want but being able to see your access-list and NAT statements would be helpful in troubleshooting the issue.

I don't see a static (inside, outside) command that references to port 5080
this is what would NAT you internal server to the desired public address for the specific port.

Excuse my ignorance, as I am new to this. I have attached an image of the interface. Is this where I set the NAT Rule, Then do I check the Port Address Translation (PAT) to TCP, original port 5080, translated port 5080?static-nat.JPG

Yes
Interface inside source will be your server's ip address
Tranlated interface outside wil be the public ip address you want to use
enable port address tranlation for tcp 5080 on both original and translated

I am using a tool called lynx which is used to test the RED5 connection to the server from one ip to another.

the developers are telling me that I need to get the same test page for the public ip address, but that is not happening.

I do however get a blinking prompt with a black screen when I telnet the public IP with the port5080 as you had previously mentioned from an external machine.

Would you like to see the running configuration again with the current changes?

The five hits seen in the attached image are from the 5 telnet calls I made to the server.

Could it be that the calls are reaching the router, but not the machine?5-hits.JPG

Hi,

It seems I can connect from outside the network to telnet ip address 5080, but when I use a public address from within the network from server to server but using public IP address it does not connect.

It seems that I cannot get outbound from within the network. Any ideas?

Also I can ping google from the box, but I cannot ping another public IP fron the same network.
